Abstract:
This article offers a detailed analysis of the modern rural world from a European perspective, showing how modernisation and other factors have critically damaged the fabric of rural societies. The author, from this, postulates the need for rural people to collaborate with those who have the power, in partnerships dedicated to inventing a new rural reality. This builds on the best values of the rural world, yet embraces new ideas and ways of thinking as it constructs and controls its own modernity.
